West Ham football player breaks silence over betting scandal

Lucas Paqueta disclosed that the support of special West Ham manager David Moyes enabled him to manage the betting scandal that caused his £80 million transfer to Manchester City to fall through.
The FA is still looking into suspicious betting patterns related to the three yellow cards that Brazil's forward Paqueta received from West Ham last year. The investigation has lasted seven months.

Although he acknowledged that being in the dark is frustrating, he claimed he makes an effort to ignore distractions from off-field issues.
